Between earning a mechanical engineering bachelor's and pursuing his master's, Aaron has taken calculus-based physics from every angle — statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics — and now applies those principles daily in graduate-level research and coursework. He breaks down problems by teaching students to sketch the physical situation first, identify constraints, and only then select the right conservation law or force equation. Holds a 5.0 rating.

Biomedical engineering at Duke means Eric solves physics problems daily — modeling forces on prosthetic joints, analyzing fluid flow through artificial vessels, calculating electrical signals in biosensors — so the mechanics and electromagnetism in a college physics course map directly onto work he's already doing. He breaks multi-step problems into their physical components first, making sure the reasoning is solid before any math hits the page. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Serving as a TA for Duke's Electricity and Magnetism course means Florence has graded the exact types of problems — Gauss's law applications, RC circuits, Faraday's law scenarios — that make college physics students sweat, and she knows precisely where the reasoning breaks down. Her computer science background also gives her a knack for teaching the systematic, step-by-step problem decomposition that turns a wall of physics into something solvable. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Neuroscience gave Julie a deep working knowledge of the physics that governs biological systems — membrane capacitance, electrical potentials across ion channels, fluid dynamics in neural vasculature — so she brings a concrete, applied lens to college physics topics that other tutors treat purely abstractly. Her strong quantitative background (1480 SAT, dual B.S. in Neuroscience) means she's comfortable walking through the calculus-based derivations in mechanics and E&M without losing sight of what the physics actually describes. Rated 5.0 by students.
Circuit theory, power systems, and electronics — Prakash didn't just study these as textbook topics but taught them as a university instructor and TA, walking undergrad students through the exact calculus-based physics (Kirchhoff's laws, AC/DC analysis, electromagnetic induction) that makes college physics courses demanding. His industry experience as a practicing electrical engineer means he can ground abstract force and field problems in real systems, showing students how equations translate into physical behavior. Rated 4.8 by students.
Dance training might seem unrelated to physics, but Alisha's choreography work at VCU demands constant intuitive reasoning about momentum, rotational inertia, and force vectors — she literally feels what happens when a dancer's center of mass shifts mid-leap. She pairs that kinesthetic understanding with strong quantitative skills (a 34 ACT backs this up) to walk students through the mechanics and energy problems that dominate introductory college physics, translating abstract equations into something physically real.
A PhD in bioengineering from Georgia Tech means Jordan has spent years applying physics to biological systems — modeling fluid flow through tissues, analyzing mechanical forces on implants, solving heat transfer problems in living systems. That engineering depth makes the leap from textbook concepts like kinematics and thermodynamics to actual problem-solving feel natural, because Jordan has done it professionally. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying physics at NC State while minoring in both computer science and mathematics means Gatlin is actively sitting in the same lecture halls and grinding through the same problem sets his students are — from projectile motion and torque to circuits and wave optics. That real-time immersion keeps him sharp on exactly which derivations and conceptual leaps cause the most confusion in introductory and intermediate courses. Rated 4.8 by students.
Danielle teaches across both physics and economics, which means she's comfortable with the kind of quantitative modeling — setting up equations, interpreting graphs, tracking how variables interact — that college physics problem sets demand. She zeroes in on the problem-setup phase, getting students to sketch force diagrams and identify constraints before jumping to formulas, especially in mechanics topics where a rushed start usually means a wrong answer.
Engineering coursework at NC State put Catrina through the full gauntlet of university-level physics, from electromagnetism and thermodynamics to fluid mechanics. She tackles college physics by walking through the conceptual reasoning behind each derivation so that students can set up novel problems confidently, not just replicate worked examples from lecture.
During her astrophysics program, Paige was a peer learning assistant for a college physics course designed for non-majors — an experience that taught her to explain electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and rotational dynamics without assuming a deep math background. She now applies that same clarity to college-level mechanics, waves, and modern physics. Students consistently rate her 5.0 for making dense material approachable.
That moment in college physics where a problem suddenly requires combining free-body diagrams with energy methods and kinematics all at once — David knows exactly where students stall, because his physics degree means he's worked through those multi-concept collisions from both the theoretical and problem-solving sides. He breaks down the transition from plug-and-chug high school problems to the layered reasoning college courses demand, especially in mechanics where students need to choose between Newton's laws and Lagrangian-style thinking on the fly.
I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor of Science in Physics. I work with students in a variety of subjects, including Math, Physics, and Chemistry. I have experience working with students on the Autism spectrum and with ADHD.
Kathleen's neuroscience background means she's already internalized the physics that governs biological systems — action potentials as RC circuits, diffusion as a thermodynamic process, imaging technologies built on wave mechanics and electromagnetic principles. She pairs that applied knowledge with serious math chops (her subject list runs from pre-algebra through multivariable calculus and biostatistics), so she can walk through both the conceptual reasoning and the calculus-heavy problem solving that college physics demands. Rated 4.9 by students.
Every problem set in calculus-based physics eventually comes down to translating a physical scenario into math — and as an electrical and computer engineering major, Artem does that translation daily across circuits, fields, and signal analysis. He breaks problems into their physical components first, teaching students to identify whether they're dealing with a conservation law, a force balance, or a field interaction before touching an equation. Rated 5.0 by students.
Currently studying at UNC Chapel Hill with AP Physics 1 and calculus in his teaching repertoire, Jeffrey tackles college physics problems by grounding them in the math fundamentals that make force diagrams, projectile motion, and energy conservation actually solvable. His 33 ACT reflects strong quantitative reasoning, and he breaks down multi-step mechanics problems into manageable pieces — isolating variables, checking units, and building intuition for when an answer makes physical sense.
Civil engineering coursework at Clemson put Matthew through the full sequence of calculus-based physics — statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, structural loading — and his professional engineering experience means he's applied those principles to real designs, not just homework sets. He breaks down free-body diagrams and equilibrium problems with the practicality of someone who's had to get them right on actual projects. Rated 5.0 by students.
Preparing for medical school means Bria is actively working through the physics that underpins the MCAT — mechanics, optics, fluids, and electrostatics — so she knows which concepts feel deceptively simple until you hit a multi-step problem. Her Yale psychology background also gives her a sharp read on how students actually learn under pressure, which she channels into breaking down force diagrams and energy calculations step by step. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying chemistry means Amanda spends most of her time inside the physics that chemistry depends on — thermodynamics governing reaction spontaneity, electrostatics driving molecular interactions, and wave mechanics underlying spectroscopy. She brings that cross-disciplinary fluency to college physics problem sets, especially when students need to connect the math (she scored a 33 ACT) to the physical intuition behind concepts like energy conservation and force analysis.
A physics degree means Nima didn't just pass college physics — he built his entire undergraduate education on top of it, from classical mechanics through electromagnetism and modern physics. He breaks down multi-step problems by teaching students to identify the governing principle first, then translate it into math, which is where a 1580 SAT and deep comfort with calculus-based reasoning pay off.
College-level physics ramps up quickly, especially once calculus-based mechanics and electromagnetism enter the picture. Richard's time as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave him deep comfort with the calculus underpinning topics like electric flux integrals and differential equations of motion. He teaches the physics and the math simultaneously, so students aren't left wondering where a derivation came from.
Biomedical engineering at VCU meant Waleed spent years applying physics to biological systems — modeling forces on prosthetic joints, analyzing fluid flow through vessels, understanding the electromagnetic principles behind imaging equipment like MRI and ultrasound. That gives him a concrete hook for the mechanics, thermodynamics, and E&M topics that fill college physics problem sets, since he can ground abstract equations in systems students can actually picture. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Engineering coursework at Cornell means Abby is actively grinding through the same calculus-based physics — mechanics, wave motion, electromagnetism — that her students are tackling, which keeps her explanations grounded in the specific problem styles and pitfalls that show up on current exams. She breaks down multi-step problems by isolating the physical principle first, then translating it into the math, so students stop guessing which equation to use. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Bidyut's biomedical engineering coursework at Johns Hopkins means he tackles college physics problems — from rotational dynamics to electromagnetic induction — with the applied perspective of someone who uses these principles in lab and design work daily. He connects abstract force diagrams and circuit analyses to real engineering scenarios so the physics actually clicks. Rated 5.0 by students.
A PhD in biomedical engineering means Andrew has spent years applying physics to biological systems — modeling forces on joints, analyzing fluid flow through tissues, understanding how electromagnetic fields interact with the body. That depth in mechanics, thermodynamics, and E&M carries directly into the calculus-based problem solving college physics courses demand. Rated 4.9 by students.
A molecular biology background means Andrew regularly encountered physics in disguise — diffusion rates, membrane potentials, fluid dynamics in biological systems — before his doctoral work added another layer of analytical rigor. He breaks down mechanics and thermodynamics problems by connecting them to tangible phenomena, which makes the abstract math feel less like symbol-pushing. Rated 4.8 by students.
Graduate work in Chemical and Physical Biology at Vanderbilt meant Dennis spent years applying thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and electromagnetism to biological systems — the same core physics concepts that fill college problem sets, just in a research context where getting the physics wrong meant failed experiments. He breaks down force, energy, and field problems by connecting them to the physical intuition behind the math, which is especially useful for pre-med and life science students navigating calculus-based physics for the first time. Holds a 5.0 rating.
College-level physics ramps up fast, and the jump from textbook examples to exam problems can be brutal. Bryan earned his B.S. in Physics and tackles that gap by teaching problem-solving frameworks — symmetry arguments in electrostatics, constraint equations in multi-body dynamics — that transfer across chapters instead of requiring a new trick every week.
Running an immunology lab at Columbia University Medical Center means Matthew applies physics daily in ways most tutors haven't — calibrating imaging equipment, analyzing force and pressure data in tissue samples, and troubleshooting instruments that depend on optics and electromagnetism. That hands-on fluency, combined with a physics degree and a 35 ACT, lets him teach college-level mechanics and E&M problems by connecting equations to the physical systems they actually describe.
College-level physics demands comfort with calculus-based problem solving, and Robert's dual background in electrical engineering and classroom teaching makes that transition smoother. He digs into topics like Gauss's law, rotational dynamics, and energy conservation by walking through the derivations rather than just handing students formulas to memorize. His engineering training at Duke means he can connect textbook problems to how these principles show up in real systems.
Studying applied mathematics at Caltech means Samuel encounters physics constantly — from classical mechanics and energy conservation to electromagnetism and wave behavior. He breaks down the math behind physical systems so that equations like Maxwell's or Newton's second law feel like tools rather than obstacles.
